PyroGenesis announces titanium powder contract with global aerospace leader

PyroGenesis Inc., the leader in ultra-high temperature processes and engineering innovation, and a plasma-based technology provider to heavy industry & defence, announces today a contract with a Global Aerospace Leader for the supply of titanium powder produced by PyroGenesis' NexGen plasma atomisation process. The contract was awarded following a competitive bid process under the approved supplier status granted to PyroGenesis by the Client in May 2025, following a multi-year certification process.

Under the contract, PyroGenesis will supply "coarse" cut Ti64 titanium powder, with a particle size distribution of 45-150µm (microns), produced using the Company's NexGen plasma atomisation system. The powder, expected to be shipped to the customer in the coming days, will support the Client's aerospace research and development programme. The terms of the contract will remain confidential for competitive reasons.

"Securing additional business from a global aerospace leader through a competitive bidding process is a strong endorsement of both our titanium powder quality and the commercial competitiveness of our NexGen technology," said Mr. P. Peter Pascali, President and CEO of PyroGenesis. "Our continued advancements in production efficiency are strengthening our cost competitiveness and positioning us to capture a greater share of the aerospace titanium powder market. This latest contract reinforces our strategy of converting technological advantages and established supplier relationships into sustained commercial growth and long-term shareholder value."

Industry and Market Context

The global 3D printing market for titanium powder is expected to increase from $214 million in 2023 to $1.4 billion by 2032.

– Titanium is classified as a critical mineral by both Canada and the U.S.

– Titanium is used by multiple industries, including space, aerospace, defence, consumer electronics, medical, hydrogen, and electric vehicles, due to its high strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance

- PyroGenesis is the inventor of the plasma atomization process and in fact coined the term "plasma atomization" in its original patent. The Company's NexGen system is a patented upgrade to what is considered the gold standard process for the development of metal powder for additive manufacturing, also referred to as metal 3D printing.
